I would say ondemand because we don't want the devices to be capped to a certain frequency because that would hurt race to idle, and smartass just sucks.

ondemand is best

Yes out of the list you have, ondemand is the best for battery.

Yep I use ondemand too...guys question. what overclocking app do you use? I have Xperia Arc S w/ 1.4Ghz that can be maximized to 1.6Ghz...can I ask what is the recommended maximum and minimum Ghz That I should use?? And when in idle mode what Ghz do you set yours? THANKS!

In my opinions, you should set the maximum and the Minimum as your rom support, and the idle should be about 600~800 or 1Ghz as you wish

This is because not all things are equal. IT is really device dependent. Some can handle it and some cant.

[Q] AnTuTu Benchmark

Hey guys, i have the SGS3 i9300, with Omega ROM v31.1 JB and SiyahKernel S3-v1.7rc3
Why is AnTuTu Benchmark showing me that my CPU is running at 1800 MHz ? I diidn't overclock it and everything is on default.
did u check Stweaks just incase the cpu is set to run at 1800mhz
sent.
yea... everything is set to default. I didn't change anything in sTweaks beside the Audio settings.
Is there any other program to check the cpu speed?

You can try set cpu or no frills cpu

I tried No-frills CPU Control and this is what it shows me...hmm
this is max cghz of your proccessor. Usually kernel doesnt set max freq, but it reports that is phone capable of 1.8 ghz

Ok then so it means that my phone is running at 1.4 GHz but it can be overclocked up to 1.8 GHz?

(Dev Request)Kernel with Gpu Overclock

Hi everyone! Thanks to xda developers i can overclock my cpu on xperia sola up to 1.4 ghz. Phone is now running extremely fast in browser. I like gaming on my phone so it would be great if there will be a kernel with gpu overclock. Thanks for your help and work.

mali 400 tweaks will improve gaming performance for sure but not as much as doing overclock. I dont wanna burn my device but i want to achieve my phones real performance.

SetCPU Guide for P,U,SOLA and GO to increase battery life

SetCPU is a tool for changing the CPU settings on a ROOTED Android phone. SetCPU can improve your performance, save battery, or both!
For more details: Google Play Link
XDA Forums Link
I managed to get around 24h of standby time and around 4h of screen-on time with 2G and wifi with moderate use but the results may differ based on personal use.
These are the profiles that would help to increase the battery life without sacrificing the performance.
Profile Name: Screen On
Conditions: Screen On
CPU Max: 800Mhz
CPU Min: 200Mhz
Governor: Lionheart
I/O Scheduler: Row
Priority: 50, Exclusive
Profile Name: Screen Off
Conditions: Screen Off
CPU Max: 400Mhz
CPU Min: 200Mhz
Governor: Lazy
I/O Scheduler: Row
Priority: 90, Exclusive
Profile Name: Games
Conditions: Any of these are true(All games)
CPU Max: 1000Mhz
CPU Min: 200Mhz
Governor: Performance
I/O Scheduler: Row
Priority: 55, Exclusive
Optional
If you experience lags during music playback when the screen is off.
Profile Name: Music
Conditions: Any of these are true(Walkman,In Call)
CPU Max: 800Mhz
CPU Min: 200Mhz
Governor: Lionheart
I/O Scheduler: Row
Priority: 91, Exclusive
Note:
1.I tried this on Xperia P, but it should work on U, GO and SOLA as well.
2.People with Stock Kernel could use governors like Ondemand,Powersave and Performance.
3.Remember to uncheck "set on boot" option on any other app that changes the CPU settings like No-Frills etc to avoid conflicts.
4.Please do not ask for download link of SetCPU as its a paid app and it is against XDA rules to post Warez,you have Google for that...
Feel free to share your experiences...:angel:
Special Thanks to nicolassp for his help...!!
Great. Setcpu also has a free version for xda users.

You should try setting up pegasusq on screen on or wheatley, much more battery life, anyway, thanks for the tips

Initially i had Wheatley, but since i was underclocking i had to balance performance as well as battery life....
So i used Lionheart.
You could try Wheatley and report the results.
Thanks man, I tried it & I hope my battery life will increase.

This guide is excellent.
Using this guide+Phantom kernel+Dark Rom I only used 32% of my battery over 14 hours yesterday
I don't see any screen on profile... the same for "games" and music, I don't have the I/O Scheduler, I don't see any "conditions" section.
What am I missing?

I use Xperia Ray and
For rooting:
I used eRoot, you literally connect your phone to PC and pres ROOT
Before that you have to enable USB Debugging in Settings->Developer Options.
After four green circles get checked your phone is rooted
For CPU control:
I installed Custom ROM and there i have "no frills CPU control" installed. I don't recommend you to do overclocking or do anything with your processor because you can brick and mess up your device if you don't know what you'r doing.
Also, man already answered, you can download do frills from playstore
If i helped you, please don't forget to hit Thanks button
Cheers
Google link for eRoot, I'm still not able to post links
If you want to decrease lag raise the minimum frequency. Overclocking does absolutely nothing except making your phone hotter and processor life shorter

With overclock you are not 100% right with 1 ghz oc on ics some times i get scroll lagg and apps opens slower and with 1,4 ghz oc phone works perfect.

The benefits of overclocking are still minimal.

if you just want to reduce the lag , use SeederEntropy app , It's AWESOME !
*requires Root Permissions*
Hope It'll help

CpU control lets u control ur phone cpu and its frequency and volatage.
increasing max freq. will increase speed but consume more battery.and risk of burning is also noteable.
so set it after doing research on ur cpu and itr limit.
and u need to be rooted and have a kernel to accses cpu

Oreo ROM for mido without Performance Profile.

Currently, I'm on RR O Official. I can't change the minimum CPU frequency.
Balanced always 1.6GHz
Efficency always 1GHz
Quick? Performance? I don't know what to say
There's no way to set min 652MHz and max 2GHz? Or disable that performance profile?
Never go down to 652MHz is battery killer!

If you like the ROM, stick with it and simply flash a custom kernel like KudKernel
